If Greenland ever actually became fully independent the USA would engineer a takeover. The US will not tolerate a nation of 65,000 people in control of such a strategic territory especially since it be unable to defend itself and be a target for Russian or Chinese efforts to control the territory. The notion that international law would somehow make it impossible for the USA to take over Greenland is naive, because the USA is the biggest guarantor of international law.

Plus a lifetime tax exemption. It would cost the United States about 500billlion which is pocket change for us. Now stop and think about it. How many residents of Greenland will ever earn ANYWHERE NEAR 8million dollars in their life time? Oh pretty much none of them will.

Offer the people of Greenland 28 billion for the country, with the caveat that they can maintain their current government and administration on the island unchanged; they'd just be a US territory instead of a Danish territory. For us that would be the cost of 2 USS Ford class aircraft carriers in exchange for a permanent presence in the North Atlantic. For them, that's 10 years of GDP for something that would effectively amount to no change in their day to day lives (except they'd be $500,000 per citizen richer). If they were willing to spread out the payments over time, we could probably even go above that amount and it would still make sense. In addition to a massive influx of cash, they'd also gain greater access to US capital markets, finally giving them the investment they need to develop their natural resources, which could further enrich the island and Denmark would no longer have to subsidize them at $700 million/year and we could possibly even negotiate a cash pay or some other favorable deal out to Denmark themselves in addition to what is paid to Greenland. It really makes sense all the way around, for the US, Greenland, and Denmark. Denmark has no use for Greenland, it's just a drain on their budget, the US does have a strategic use for the island and the capital to further develop it, which Denmark lacks, and the people of Greenland could become a lot richer at relatively little cost to themselves.
